I got an Authenticator request from another country for my Microsoft account. I denied it and went in and changed my password, a day later I get another Authenticator request from a different country than the first. Again change password and again it happens. How can I secure my account how are they able to send these Authenticator requests?

Microslop prints a load of chunky artificial
Intelligence that is irrelevant
Copilot is rendering everything useless, and it
Repeats the process until your CPU & RAM are destroyed to
Oblivion, creating hella mass
Slopware that nobody asked for
Laundering your OS until you
Obey to Slopya Nadella, or face the
Painful consequences of a constant AI-powered machine!

So apparently slop pirates are basically software developers or company execs who pushes AI to the whole ecosystem, and Microslop's CEO Satya Nadella is a great example of how an entire company revolutionised around AI as a brand.

This has lead to significant backlash on the internet, and bad rep on those features that nobody asked for. Apps that would work normally are now infested with 'slopware', which means that Copilot has taken over (virtually) every Microsoft app and made it into every Microslop app!

Alternatively, I often use the term slopaneer (a portmanteau of slop + buccaneer) to describe this too, particularly ranting on and on about Nadella's forced AI integrations on Windows 11 and on newer Windows PC (poor Lenovo, they got pushed so hard by Microslop's poor decision-making). We must make a move and stop those slop pirates from infecting the computer industry with criticism before they go even harder!

So spread the word and stop Microslop and its employees from spreading the slop disease around!

On today’s Windows or Linux — what are the daily issues you still can’t fix?

What’s stopping you from switching:

• Windows → Linux

• Linux → Windows

Both OSes win and lose in 2026.

Example: Linux still can’t run all programs or games, and some don’t run at all.

Example: Windows is the global OS, but far from perfect for everyone.

Some people only need gaming or gaming + streaming.

Others need work tools or gaming + work.

Some users want to remove annoying Windows features but can’t do it through the official settings.

So what’s the one thing in your OS that annoys you every day or stops you from switching?

I’ll answer your comment when I can.

Microsoft used to be a great company. Windows XP was simple, light, and easy to understand. Windows 7 was the last “normal” OS — clean UI, fewer settings, and if you didn’t understand something, you could find it on YouTube in 2 minutes.

Then everything went downhill.

Windows 8/8.1 was basically a phone OS forced onto a PC. The start menu was nonsense and nobody asked for it.

Windows 10 is where the slow performance started. If you didn’t strip the nonsense, your RAM was gone. Back then people had 4–8GB RAM, and Windows 10 ate half of it on idle.

Now Windows 11 (2026) is the most nonsense OS Microsoft ever made.

Normal people can’t delete anything. Power users can remove Edge, disable 200+ services, kill telemetry, fix the UI, and clean the system. But normal users? They’re stuck.

Microsoft didn’t think about them at all.

– Settings are mixed everywhere

– UI is inconsistent

– Everything is locked

– Edge comes back after updates

– RAM usage on idle is 3–4GB for nothing

– 300+ processes running on a fresh install

– Handles/threads/processes exploding even when nothing is open

– GPU drivers install useless HDMI audio drivers

– Performance is a joke in 2026

– Windows became a “product OS” instead of a tool for people

– Ads, cloud, AI, bloat everywhere

On Linux, if something annoys you — you remove it. Done.

On Windows, you need to fight the OS just to use your own computer.

Windows in 2026 = meme.

Linux in 2026 = remember commands because nobody builds a simple UI for everything.

Windows keeps getting more bloated, more locked down, and more filled with stuff nobody actually wants. Every update hides more settings, adds more ads, and buries basic controls behind layers of UI. Even simple things that used to be one click now require digging through menus, registry edits, or random scripts from the internet.

I got tired of fighting the OS just to make it behave like a normal system again. So instead of relying on debloat scripts or hoping Microsoft stops adding nonsense, I started building my own tool to expose the controls Windows keeps burying.

The goal wasn’t to make something flashy or corporate-looking. I just wanted a clean interface that gives back the options Windows tries to hide. Something practical, fast, and actually useful.

Right now it already handles things like:

revealing hidden system options

disabling annoying built‑in features

cleaning up parts of the OS that normally require scripts

undoing some of Microsoft’s “forced” decisions

making Windows feel less restrictive and less like an ad platform

I’m improving it based on real use, not marketing. If something is annoying in Windows, I try to make it fixable. If something is buried, I try to surface it. If something is forced, I try to give the user a choice again.

I have a vintage computing store where I sell games for old systems and promote my open-source software.

I made this t-shirt based on the MicroSlop trend as well as kinda loving the old vintage look and feel of tech branding.

I hope you like it!
